TIME proclaims Tiger "Gadget of the Week"

Wilson Rothman of TIME.com names Mac OS X Tiger Gadget of the Week.

Cool, albeit a little odd since it's an operating system and not "a small mechanical device or tool, esp. an ingenious or novel one." That definition is from Tiger's built-in Oxford American Dictionary, which happens to be the first bulleted feature that 'we might not know about' that he mentions, after extolling on the virtues of Widgets and the Dashboard.

His list is overall a bit bizarre. The five features he chooses are the Dictionary, Migration Assistant, Quicktime's HD functionality, Album Art as a screen saver, and VoiceOver. These are all cool, but I think most people know at least three out of the five. Also, I honestly think this is the first article I've read about Tiger that doesn't spend several paragraphs praising Spotlight.
